The Emory women are coming off back-to-back UAA Championships
during the 2010 outdoor season and the 2011 indoor season.
The title last season was fifth in the program’s history
(1990, 1993, 1994, and 1997).
The Emory men have finished third at each of the last three UAA
Outdoor Track & Field Championships, and finished third at 2011
Indoor Championships as well. The Eagles last won the UAA
Outdoor Championship during the 2004 season, in addition to
conference titles in 1996, 2001 and 2002.
Complete results and team scores will be posted to
